Also, Chris Coyier showed us how to animate <dialog><\/code>s<\/a>, which I think many of us know how to do already, but it\u2019s so easy to mess up. I have to Google it every time (it\u2019s those bleeping @starting-style<\/code>s).<\/p>\n

What happened at CSS Day 2026?<\/h2>\n

CSS Day<\/a>, the annual CSS community conference, was held in Amsterdam on the 11th and 12th of this month (so two days, technically). While there wasn\u2019t a livestream this year, recordings will become available in late June. Until then, check out CSS Day on Bluesky<\/a> as well as the #CSSDay Bluesky feed<\/a> to see what happened on stage, what happened behind the scenes, and even the slides from some of the talks.<\/p>\n

And no, there weren\u2019t any flamethrowers this year, but it wasn\u2019t DOOM-free either (if you know, you know).<\/p>\n

CSS Wordle<\/h2>\n

What a week it\u2019s been, especially with everything that transpired at CSS Day, but if you have any energy left I highly recommend a round (or several rounds) of Sunkanmi Fafowora<\/a>\u2019s CSS Wordle<\/a>, which I\u2019ve literally been obsessed with for the last week.<\/p>\n
